摘要

An isolated immunogenic peptide derived from an antigenic protein comprising: (1) an epitope of a natural killer T cell (NKT cell) carrying a [FWHY] -xx [ILMV] -xx [FWHY] motif includes; and (2) a [CST] -xx-C or C-xx [CST] thioreductase motif located either immediately adjacent to the NKT cell epitope or separated by a linker of at most 7 amino acids from the NKT cell epitope.
